To Infinity and Beyond - Becoming a Better DopeyBadger (Comments Welcome)

Ditto on what others have said on the new job and what all you've contributed to the forum and to our collective running knowledge. Your data skills are greatly appreciated and totally useful.
As for turning 40... <snorts>. I've got 20 years on you and would love to go back to that age to already have been running diligently. And as indicated by my gap between the 2011 and 2022 MWs, sometimes life interferes; I pray that you don't have any such interruption. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
All of which is to say, you've accomplished a ton, have a truly inspiration couch-to-running story, and have taught a lot of most of us. My advice would be to fit in the training and running that you can for now, and ramp it back up as you get more settled into the new job. Good luck. YMMV.

Thanks a bunch! I'll take your advice to heart.

I'd say we were the OGs when the DIS migrated the runDisney forum into training journals. Once the weather calms down and the job calms down, I'll be back at it blogging regularly again. Bout to turn 40 this year, so the body will need a refresher as I turn the page into a new chapter.

OMG LOL. I just yapped too much. Hahahaha.

Wait did I not know you were younger than me? You just have that old soul kind of vibe!

It definitely feels that way sometimes. Picking up sewing definitely puts me with a much older crowd when I'm standing in line at checkout. LOL!
